On Feb 20th/12 I had my surgery and this month it will be 2 months, I'm still have problems going to the bathroom!! I have lost in total of 50 pounds since I had my surgery. I feel great but I can't go to the bath room, I have tried Benefiber 3X aday and stool softens and ect.... Does anyone else have the problem and what did they do for it.

    drink more water, add in some veggies, cut down on the cheese (it binds me up terrible), and if you have to start taking metamucil or some other gentle fiber. You don't want to get impacted because that can be a very serious condition :-(

    You can add magnesium to your daily vitamins, too.
